you took your last breath
4 days ago
outside the room
the fish in the tank don't know
they continue to swim about in their little box of a sea
beautiful, like you
innocent, like you
always looking out the glass, like you
always going in small circles, like you
taken for granted, like you
they'll stay that way, each day, as many more people die within those same walls
they could never know what happened, the amazing person you were, or about people at all
i wonder if they know that one day, they too, will go
i think the answer is no
i think they live in peace
and i hope you do, now, too
